About us
Empowering our team to make a meaningful difference for small businesses and our community.
With roots dating back over 30 years, NIBONY Insurance was founded on the principles of resilience, innovation, and client-first service. Our journey began in Manhattan, where Frank Cormio launched his insurance career at Davis, Dorland & Co. When the agency was sold just two years later, Frank took a bold step-partnering with George Wagner and longtime friend Drew Muller to build something of their own.
By 1995, NIBONY Insurance was officially born. What started as a small, independent agency has grown into a trusted provider of Personal Insurance and Commercial Insurance solutions across New York and beyond. From homeowners and auto insurance to business liability, property, and workers' compensation coverage, we offer a full suite of Property and Casualty Insurance products tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals, families, and businesses.
We are also licensed to provide Life and Health Insurance, ensuring our clients have access to comprehensive protection at every stage of life. Our success-now exceeding $60 million in written premium-is driven by a dedicated team, a creative approach to problem-solving, and a relentless commitment to delivering exceptional client experiences.
At NIBONY, we don't just sell insurance-we build lasting relationships and deliver peace of mind.
